Which again, is why I like Sprint. I stream it for 2 hours a day with no problem over 3G on the way to and from work. Can't even remember the last time I listened to the radio for more than a few minutes.

Well yes.

I don't seem to use much data even on 3g. I've been amazed how well Pandora works...

I don't watch much video on my phone, which I suspect eats a lot of data. I use email, pandora, and google maps from time to time. I average 1.3GB /month.

... I used to have my iPhone jailbroken, and I set it up as my home wifi hotspot when I moved, before I had Comcast set up. ... turns out you can watch Netflix/hulu over a 3g connection, but you'll use ~16+GB/month doing so. ... AT&T called and asked me to stop. (but no penalty).

You know what his signature needs? More cowbell.

Edit: I see that Cheron had a similar reaction. I like the idea of more cowbell.

Well, if you noticed, I didn't add it (and really then needed the scroll bar for my sig) until after Cheron requested more Cowbell. And really, it'll only be for the holidays.

Oh, and people in glass houses ...

Set the alarm for 2:55AM (EST) to make sure I was awake to learn a simple and valuable lesson: It's far easier to get a Bandolier of Carrots than it is to get dinner reservations at The French Laundry.
At 12:00:02 (PST), the message on Open Table was "Your requested date exceeds the maximum advance reservation limit for The French Laundry. At 12:00:05, it was "There are no reservations currently available for the day you have requested. The French Laundry maintains a waitlist via the phone only. They would be happy to add your name to the list."
From not taking reservations yet to fully booked in 3 seconds. Sheeesh!

End of rant. Thanks for your patience.

Why do you two do this all the time? (and not just you two, but others as well)
We know you two have each other's email addresses. Why use the stupid PM system here where you have to post in the forum about personal messages like this? It's just plain silly. Just send an email, already.

You have PMs.

Actually, I don't think I have his email address. And also I think it's because we feel people will see it here sooner than trying to wade thru their emails. But mostly to annoy you.

Some d-bag sent out a huge email to the whole school that our kids attend, then, at the end, stated for us to NOT reply to it unless we are administrators in the school. So, of course, now everyone is replying back, adding their $0.02 to it, and then there are people hitting reply all asking to be removed from the list...

so. hard. not. to. reply all.

That happened on my work email over the Thanksgiving holiday. It went on for days. People got back from vacation and replied and it all started over again.
